Unidentified plane crashes into sea off Myanmar, search underway

“An unidentified aircraft” has crashed into the sea off the west coast of Myanmar, a Civil Aviation Department official said, as cited by Reuters, adding that Myanmar authorities are trying to locate the plane.

“The only thing I can tell you for sure at the moment is that it is not an aircraft from our domestic airlines, so far as we’ve checked,” senior department official Tin Maung Ni told Reuters.
